摘要:To deepen understanding of social judgments of organizations, we build on work that has adopted the evaluator's perspective to develop a comprehensive functional approach to social judgments. We identify a set of adaptive challenges faced by evaluators in their relationship with organizations and theorize how the judgments they make can help resolve those challenges. In doing so, we clarify how social judgments are rooted in comparisons between the organization's properties and some social ref...

摘要:We develop new theory to explain the apparent mystery that societal crises recurringly and consistently give rise to extreme growth outlier organizations that reach prominent positions in their industries and markets. We argue that societal crises increase demand for the market offerings of a minority of organizations, which can help the negatively affected majority of economic agents adapt to the crisis conditions. Because the majority of economic agents struggle, this externally-enabled mino...

摘要:Start-up employees are a crucial yet understudied stakeholder group. This paper develops a theory of the start-up workforce that positions early-stage employees as influential co-constructors of entrepreneurial opportunities. Drawing on constructivist logic and integrating insights from entrepreneurship and organizational behavior, I explore how entrepreneurial opportunity narratives and career fit narratives, generated at the firm and start-up employee levels, respectively, interact and evolv...

摘要:People's multiple identities often wax, wane, and are transformed over their lifetimes, both as sources of personal meaning and as realities communicated to others. Yet, despite a research turn toward studying identities as multiple and dynamic, largely still missing is a cohesive view of people's efforts to narratively integrate the sum of their many evolving parts. In this paper, we take a narrative perspective on the notion of identity holism to theorize how people build a meaningful whole ...

摘要:Competitive dynamics (CD) research has long relied on the awareness-motivation-capability (AMC) framework to analyze competitive actions and responses. Rooted in the stimulus-response model from social cognition research, the AMC framework unsurprisingly emphasizes a focal firm's ex post (i.e., emergent) awareness of a rival's attack as the requisite stimulus for a focal firm's competitive response. We extend both the AMC model and the CD literature by considering the competitive relevance of ...

摘要:Scholars have traditionally treated motivation as a value-neutral state divorced from normative considerations. Yet, research across the social sciences suggests a growing moral imperative to love work, which carries with it the social expectation of intrinsic motivation. This normative pressure stems from the moralization of intrinsic motivation, wherein enjoyment of work is converted into a virtue. While research and practice emphasize positive work outcomes associated with intrinsic motivat...

摘要:We introduce novel theory to explain how and why some forms of work are particularly likely to foster work-home conflict. While all occupations have entrenched and prescriptively normative cognitive behavioral scripts that guide effective work task execution, we argue that some occupations' scripts are predominantly oppositional in nature, and largely inappropriate outside of the work domain. We articulate four forms of oppositional thoughts and behaviors (physical, interpersonally hostile, au...
